Application filed January 22, 1910. Serial No. 539,558.

To all whom it may concern I Be it known that LPE ERE. MALMSTROM, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of the city, county, and State of New York, have invented new and useful Improvements in Siphon-Bottle-ChargingDevices, of which the following is a specification. v

The object of my invention is to provide a device of this class that will be simple .in construction and reliable and durable when in operation. This object is accomplished by my invention, one embodiment of which is hereinafter set forth.

For a'more particular description of my invention, reference is to be had to the accompanying drawing forming a part hereof,

in which:

Figure 1 is a side elevation of my improved device, in use. Fig. 2 is a plan view of the same with the bottle omitted and a part shown in section. Figs. 3 and 4 are sectional views taken on the lines 33 and 4i of Fig. 2, looking in the direction of the arrows. Fig. 5 is a sectional view showing a filling nozzle.

Throughout the various views of the drawings, similar reference characters designate similar parts.

My improved device 1 has two valves comprisin a casing 2 and parallel and vertis cally disposed tubes 4% and 5 in which are stems 6 and 7, respectively.

3 is a cross member connecting the opposite portions of the valve casing 2, as shown in Fig. 4:.

Each tube has a seat 8, and a bore of varying diameters, the lowest being the largest to receive a member 10 on a Stem 6 or 7, and this member 10 acts as a valve and fits against the seat 8 with a gas-tight joint, and it is held thereon by the pressure beneath as well as by the action of a coiled spring 11 which presses against a head 12 and a bushing 13, all suitably mounted as shown in Fig. 4 so as not to interfere with the movement of the stem. The bushing 13 rests on a packing 1 1 and snug against the stem 6 or 7, as the case may be. Each head 12 is under a horizontally disposed shaft 15 mounted to turn freely in standards 16 that extend upwardly from the casing 2, and this shaft 15 carries a handle 17 pivoted at each side of the uprights 16 as shown in Fig. 4. Outside the handle 17 are secured cams 18 and 19, to the shaft 15, which cams are the ordinary the head 29 of a bottle 29 of the disk-cams with recesses 20 and 21 in'which the heads 12 normally rest when the handle 17 is upright." The cams 18 and 19 are'fixed in place on the shaft 15 by means of suitable screws 22. One of the uprights 16 has a pin 23 which limits the movement of the handle 17 so that it will not berocked too far.

The casing 2 is secured to a bracket 24 which may be fixed to any convenient object 25 b'yscrews or other suitable means.

Swiveledon the shaft 15 is a rigid arm 26 which runs inclinedly as shownin Fig.

1, and is fixed to the uprights 16 and rests between them. The free end of the arm-26 isprovided with an opening 27 which has a soft lining 28 adapted to rest snug against 7 usual siphon form. 1

The casing 2 has a pipe 30 running therefrom, which has a union 31- at its upper end in which are two packing rings 32 and 33 respectively. These are separated by a small nozzle 34, which has a collar 3 1 extending between the packing rings 32 and 33 as shown in Fig. 5. The outer packing ring 33 is adapted to receive and hold the end of the nozzle 35 of the bottle 29 with a gas tight joint so that the siphon head of the bottle 29 is firmly held between the arm 26 as a fulcrum and the pipe 30 as shown in Figs. 1 and 5. The union 31 seats the ring 32 on the end of the pipe 30 with a gas tight fit. The pipe is connected with both the tubes Land 5 by means of suitable bores, as shown so that gas and liquid can flow freely from each tube to the pipe 30 whenever the opening of the valves per m1ts.

It. is of course understood that the pipes 4 and 5, respectively, areconnected with a liquid supply under pressure and a gas supply, (not shown) whereby the fluid admitted to a bottle maybe properly charged. It is immaterial which of the pipes 4 and 5 admits carbonic acid gas or water as either supply may be connected with one pipe or the other if desirable.

From the foregoing the operation of my improved device will be readily understood. The bottle is first placed as shown in Fig. 1 pressing the nozz e 35 firmly against the ring 33, and held by the operator, who opens. the siphon therein in the usual manner. With the other hand he grasps the handle 17 and rocks the Same aS shown in dotted lines.

WVhen drawn in one direction Water is admitted through the tube 5 and When in the other, carbonic acid gas is admitted, and the bottle can be thoroughly charged. The carbonic acid gas is admitted after the liquid has been first admitted. The air contained in the siphon can be sniffed out, if desired by removing the bottle and inverting it.

While I have shown and described one embodiment of my invention, it is not restricted thereto, but is broad enough to Copies of this patent may be obtained for hold the nozzle of the same in a pipe extending from the valves and situated below said rigid arm.

2. In a device of the class described, a valve casing having parallel tubes and a supply pipe connected With said casing between said tubes, spring actuated valves in said tubes, an oscillatory shaft mounted above said tubes, a handle for oscillating the shaft, cams on said shaft for actuating said valves, and arigid arm carried by said shaft, with an opening in its outer end for encircling the head of a bottle, and adapted to hold the nozzle of said bottle in a supply pipe With a gas tight fit.

Signed in the city of New York, county of New York and State of New York, this 20th day of January,.1909.
